Duckett leads England to classic defeat of India

Ben Duckett's astonishing 149 led England to a target of 371 - one of the all-time great run chases - to beat India on a nerve-shredding final day of the first Test at Headingley.

Duckett played one of the finest innings by an England batter as the home side pulled off their second-highest successful pursuit, beaten only by the 378 to defeat the same opponents at Edgbaston three years ago.

In doing so, Duckett added his to the list of names etched into Headingley folklore: Ian Botham in 1981, Mark Butcher in 2001, Shai Hope in 2017 and, perhaps most famously, Ben Stokes in 2019.
